I have the 990 paired with an ATI 2005. I was waiting for the 7500 and I was pretty sure after talking to Outlaw that it was going to be built by ATI. I got a very good deal on the ATI 2005 just two days before the 7500 showed up on the website. I really like the 990/2005 combo. No regrets here. After the announcement and a one-to-one comparison between the spec sheets you could tell the 7500 was the cousin of the ATI 2005. I feel like I'm still in the Outlaw family with the 2005. I tried five 2200 monoblocks, but for several reasons sent them back. Outlaw provided great customer service.

AndrewS: I looked for a Sherbourn 5/1500A for a few months but none showed up on e-bay or Audiogon. Five mono-blocks in a single box is a pretty cool concept. It would be interesting to do an A-B test on the 7500 vs. the 5/1500A.

DOJ, I agree with Gonk; you'd like the 990.
